Chandler Parsons invited to USA Basketball summer minicamp

Rockets forward Chandler Parsons is one of 27 young players scheduled to attend USA Basketball’s minicamp in July.

Cleveland All-Star Kyrie Irving and Portland’s Damian Lillard, who succeeded him as Rookie of the Year, were also among the players announced Wednesday. Indiana’s Paul George and Jrue Holiday of Philadelphia were the other All-Stars to earn an invitation.

The players will train from July 22-25 in Las Vegas, capped by an intrasquad exhibition game on July 25 at the Thomas & Mack Center.

They’ll be coached by Mike Krzyzewski and his assistants Jim Boeheim, Monty Williams and Tom Thibodeau.
